Val passed away from pneumonia on March 21, 2010, at AV Hospital, at the age of 91 years old. He worked as a conductor for the Southern Pacific Railroad for 42 years and retired April 1, 1980. He loved his job and was just a few days short of 30 years in retirement. Val was married to his wife, Pat, for over 35 years. His favorite vacation was spent fishing on Table Rock Lake in the Missouri Ozarks. He was a wonderful husband and well liked by all who got to know him as a friend. Val is lovingly remembered by his wife, Pat and brother Louie and wife, Dorothy, as well as several nieces and nephews. Our lives will be so empty without him.
We all love you, 'Babe'
